The Deep Blue is the market leading deepwater pipelay and subsea construction vessel. She utilises the reel-lay and J-lay pipelay methods to install all types of flexible and rigid pipe and umbilicals, and can lay umbilicals and flexibles from her below-deck carousels. Technip's flagship vessel has an excellent track record including many industry firsts and supports subsea developments in water depths up to 3,000 m.

Our simulator facilitates the training of PLV operators in pipelaying procedures and operational safety protocols. It also helps to improve cooperation with the deck crew, without the risk of damage, downtime or injuries. See for more information: https://www.royalihc.com/en/services/training

Vessels (Wolf & Cub album)

Vessels is the first full length album from psychedelic rock group Wolf & Cub. It was recorded in Adelaide, Australia from April 2005 and released on 28 August 2006. The album was mixed by producer Tony Doogan after lead singer Joel Byrne travelled to Scotland for 3 weeks. Tony Doogan previously worked with artists such as Mogwai, Belle & Sebastian, Super Furry Animals, Dirty Pretty Things and The Mountain Goats. The album was mastered by Greg Calbi in New York. Vessels features nine completely new tracks from the band and a reworking of their earlier single "Steal Their Gold". It peaked in the top100 of the ARIA Albums Chart.

Reception

The album was Drum Media's fifth most favoured album of 2006 as decided by over 20 reviewers. Internet publication and magazine, Mess + Noise, voted Vessels' album artwork as the best of 2006. The album was bestowed Album of the Week by popular alternative radio station Triple J in September.

Vessels (band)

History

On 5 March 2007, the band released a limited 7" single ("Yuki" / "Forever the Optimist") through Cuckundoo Records, and were tipped by BBC Radio 1 as one of the hottest new bands in the country. The band recorded a session for Huw Stephens's show on BBC Radio 1, which was broadcast on 29 March. This was followed by the addition of Peter Wright to the line-up. Another single, "Two Words & A Gesture", was released in November 2007.

Vessels travelled to Minneapolis, United States to record their debut album, White Fields and Open Devices, with producer John Congleton who had previously worked with fellow post-rock artists Explosions in the Sky and This Will Destroy You as well as Modest Mouse, at Pachyderm Studios in December 2007. They completed recording of the ten track album in twelve days and returned to the UK for a nationwide tour. On 16 June they released the single "A Hundred Times In Every Direction". Their debut album was released on 18 August.

Anonymous pipe

In computer science, an anonymous pipe is a simplexFIFO communication channel that may be used for one-way interprocess communication (IPC). An implementation is often integrated into the operating system's file IO subsystem. Typically a parent program opens anonymous pipes, and creates a new process that inherits the other ends of the pipes, or creates several new processes and arranges them in a pipeline.

Pipelines are supported in most popular operating systems, from Unix and DOS onwards, and are created using the "|" character.

Unix

Pipelines are an important part of many traditional Unix applications and support for them is well integrated into most Unix-like operating systems. Pipes are created using the pipesystem call, which creates a new pipe and returns a pair of file descriptors referring to the read and write ends of the pipe. Many traditional Unix programs are designed as filters to work with pipes.

Smoking pipe

A smoking pipe is a device made to allow the user to inhale or taste smoke or vapor derived from the burning or vaporization of some substance. The most common form of these is the tobacco pipe, which is designed for use with tobacco, although the device itself may be used with many other substances. The pipes are manufactured with a variety of materials, the most common (as the popularity of its use): Briar, Heather, corn, meerschaum, clay, cherry, glass, porcelain, ebonite, acrylic and other more unusual materials. Other kinds of smoking pipes include:

O-lay deep water pipeline & PLET installation

This video shows the the O-lay technology and how a pipeline is installed in deep water.
With the O-lay method it is easier and cheaper to install pipeline in any water depth.
Due to the fact that almost all the work is prepared onshore (including welding and inspecting the pipe) the pipe can be installed at a speed of 25 km per day.
Welding quality is very high because most welds are produced with sub-merged arc welding (SAW) and the final joints are welded in the fire line with an automatic orbital welding system.
The pipeline is spiraled in the elastic area of the steel and then transported to the installation location. (see previous video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhyAQuUtzdg)
A PLET can be connected to the pipeline on board of the vessel and then sunk down its final position. (shown at 0m24s)
The pipeline can be installed with a "simple" lay barge that is specially designed for the installation of pipe. The pipe is then provided from the large spiral of pipe (shown from 1m50s)
feeding the pipeline through the lay barge over the mid stinger in the elastic area of the steel of the pipeline. Pipe is not being deformed like with the reel lay.
This method of spiralling a steel pipe for offshore installation is developed by Jan Buijvoets.
